“While women weep, as they do now, I’ll fight; while children go hungry, as they do now I’ll fight; while men go to prison, in and out, in and out, as they do now, I’ll fight; while there is a drunkard left, while there is a poor lost girl upon the streets, while there remains one dark soul without the light of God, I’ll fight, I’ll fight to the very end!”
    -William Booth,
     Founder of The Salvation Army

The Center of Hope provides homeless people and poverty-stricken families with a safe, secure alternative to living in the streets or parks, and to help these men and women develop and implement realistic goal plans that lead toward employment, housing, and self-sufficiency.  We provide a healthy, substance-free environment that promotes healing and growth. The Emergency Assistance Program exists to aid those in the community threatened by homeless by providing necessary resources that lead to stability. Our successes are made possible by a committed staff, a strong community, charitable donors and volunteers, as well as good-hearted people like you that want to make a difference.

Our motivation is love of God and a practical concern for the needs of humanity.
